Hit Iranian horror Under the Shadow conjured scares from the aftermath of the 1979 revolution. With Tehran once again under siege, a new theatrical version makes that story feel more relevant than ever Nadia Latif’s grandmother warned her about djinn. “If angels are good and devils are evil,” the theatre and film director remembers learning, “then the djinn is something in between.” As a child, she asked her grandmother what that really meant. “It means,” she was told, “that bad things happen to good people.” For rehearsals of Carmen Nasr’s stage adaptation of Babak Anvari’s 2016 Iranian horror movie, the djinn-haunted Under the Shadow, Latif has placed a protective evil eye to keep watch over the room. “Just in case,” she says. The Bafta-winning Farsi horror film – performed on stage in English – is set in Tehran in 1988 as Iraq hurls missiles across the border, with the shadow of the 1979 Iranian revolution still hanging heavy over the country. Shideh, played in the film by Narges Rashidi, hides in her apartment with her doll-hugging, terrified daughter as the story unravels into a deeply political horror. Nightmare and reality collide as the supernatural being becomes an increasingly tangible presence in their home: rumours become real, apparitions stalk the night and opportunities for escape are steadily slashed. “It’s the beginning of most Persian conversations,” says the British-Iranian Leila Farzad, who follows her role as a knowledge-hungry academic in Tom Stoppard’s Arcadia by playing Shideh on stage. “Before the revolution or after the revolution. Even 47 years later, it’s the thing that is most talked about. Enqelab, the word for revolution, is one of the first words you hear as an Iranian kid.” Continue reading...
Vetting of former UK ambassador to Washington warned of ties to senior figures in China, Russia and Israel A former head of MI6 has said it would have been “totally impossible” for the Foreign Office to put in place mitigations to manage Peter Mandelson’s associations with senior figures in China, Russia and Israel when he was the UK’s ambassador to the US. On Wednesday, the Guardian revealed some of the concerns that contributed to security officials recommending that Mandelson be denied developed vetting clearance in early 2025. Continue reading...

A behind-the-scenes second world war drama focused on the importance of weather is too stodgy and repetitive to work as anything but a so-so TV movie In a world of increasingly segmented audiences, the new movie Pressure cleverly brings together two adjacent demographics: weather dads and history dads. Those designations are honorifics, not gender-essentialist; spiritually dad-curious people of all ages (but, let’s be real: mostly over 50) may be interested in a behind-the-scenes story set in the last few days leading up to the allied invasion of Normandy in June 1944. Because this is the largest-scale seaborne invasion ever mounted, weather is a major factor, and the movie follows military higher-ups as they work around the clock trying to figure out whether a possible incoming storm will create unfavorable or impossible conditions. To put it in contemporary terms, this is essentially a movie about Dwight Eisenhower (Brendan Fraser) nervously refreshing his weather app to see if he needs to change his upcoming plans. The weather app is played by Andrew Scott. Scott’s actual character is James Stagg, a somewhat brusque and chilly Scotsman brought in to the D-day planning as the operation’s chief meteorological officer. Stagg quickly clashes with the American Irving Krick (Chris Messina), who knows that D-day is crucial and time is of the essence – and is therefore bullish about (selectively) using past data to “predict” that the storms will quickly pass. Stagg’s analysis is far less optimistic. Anyone who has held tickets to a forecast-dependent outdoor concert will relate. Continue reading...

Life is tough on the autonomous territory – not least for its footballers, as this documentary testifies As the football-industrial complex churns out ever more eyeball-aimed product, precision engineered to trigger either triumphalism or nostalgia (or both), there’s occasionally room for stories like this about Greenland’s eight team championship playoff: scrappy chronicles of big-hearted underachievers in obscure corners of the football universe. (One of them, about perennial losers American Samoa, even got turned into a feature film directed by Taika Waititi.) Could Greenland’s strugglers and strivers end up as characters in a big-screen comedy? Stranger things have happened and, after the country’s surprise arrival in the geopolitical spotlight, this might yet be the best way for outsiders to get some understanding of the place. As it is, one of the main virtues of this film is to convey just how tough life is in the world’s largest island (an “autonomous territory”, part of the kingdom of Denmark). We see the team captain, Patrick Frederiksen (a charismatic presence and one of the documentary’s main characters), moodily hunting for seals, giant icebergs floating yards away from the edge of a football pitch, and the non-appearance of half the team for the week-long playoffs due to cancelled flights (travelling by boat takes longer, but is more reliable). The team in question is the slightly unmemorably named B-67, who hail from Greenland’s capital Nuuk; they appear to have an Old Firm-ish sort of rivalry with Nagdlunguak, from the island’s third largest town, Ilulissat. The shortness of the playing season, it is regularly pointed out, is one of the main factors hampering Greenland’s football, as there are only a few short summer weeks where the place thaws enough for outdoor matches. The aforementioned travel issues mean, moreover, it’s almost impossible to arrange games against anyone other than local sides. Continue reading...
ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court has ruled that family courts should not convert a wife’s suit for dissolution of marriage on grounds of cruelty into a decree of khula without her explicit and informed consent, particularly when valuable financial rights such as unpaid dower are involved. Authored by Justice Shahid Bilal Hassan on behalf of a three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Yahya Afridi, the observations came while hearing an appeal filed by Selab Akhtar against a decision of the Peshawar High Court that upheld concurrent findings of lower courts dissolving her marriage through khula and denying her full dower and past maintenance. “We hold,” the judgement said, “that khula should not ordinarily be granted without the wife’s consent or clear election where she had sued on grounds of cruelty and valuable financial rights were implicated.” However, where cruelty is not proved and marital life has manifestly collapsed, courts must give the wife an opportunity to choose whether to pursue dismissal of her claim or accept dissolution through khula upon lawful terms, rather than compelling restoration of a relationship that has effectively ceased to exist, Justice Hassan observed. Cautions against setting unrealistic standards for proof of cruelty, especially when unpaid dower is involved “The proper judicial course is neither to impose khula without consent nor to mechanically dismiss the matter while ignoring matrimonial breakdown,” the judgement emphasised. The dispute arose from a matrimonial case between Selab Akhtar and Quwat Khan. The couple married on Sept 19, 2016, in Swat’s Matta tehsil, where 30 tolas of gold were fixed as haq mehr. According to the petitioner, after marriage she was subjected by her husband and his family members to harsh treatment, coercion, humiliation, cruelty and mental torture, making continuation of matrimonial life impossible. She alleged she was expelled from the house without justification and denied maintenance. Consequently, she filed a suit before Judge Family Court-II, Swat, seeking dissolution of marriage on grounds of cruelty, recovery of 30 tolas of gold as dower or its market value, and maintenance allowance from the date of neglect until disposal of the suit. The principal question before the SC was whether a family court could dissolve a marriage through khula where the wife had sought dissolution on grounds of cruelty but failed to substantiate the allegations through legally admissible evidence, despite expressing unwillingness to continue the marriage. The court also examined whether such relief could be granted when no specific prayer for khula had been made and no express consent had been recorded. Justice Hassan observed that the controversy was not merely whether the marriage should stand dissolved, but the legal consequences flowing from a failed cruelty claim where the wife nevertheless refused to continue the marital bond. The verdict explained that where cruelty or statutory fault on the part of the husband is established, the wife ordinarily can’t be compelled to forfeit her dower merely to secure freedom from an oppressive union. In contrast, dissolution through khula ordinarily involves relinquishment or restitution of financial consideration, including dower to the extent recognised by law. The SC observed when a wife approaches the court alleging cruelty, she is effectively seeking a declaration that the husband’s conduct disentitles him from retaining reciprocal marital rights, including unpaid dower. “To convert such claim, without due regard to the nature of relief pursued, into one of khula may prejudice valuable financial rights,” it emphasised. At the same time, the court observed that judges cannot ignore situations where a marriage has irretrievably broken down in fact. If cohabitation has ceased, bitterness has deepened and the wife unequivocally refuses to resume marital life, the law cannot compel parties to continue a “dead relationship” merely in name. The judgement also criticised the approach adopted by subordinate courts in assessing allegations of cruelty. It noted that courts often insist on standards of proof ill-suited to the realities of matrimonial life, such as requiring independent eyewitnesses to domestic abuse, FIRs for confinement or medical certificates in every case of physical assault. “Such an approach overlooks that marriage is essentially a private relationship conducted within the walls of a home,” the judgement said, adding that women may seldom be in a position to procure independent witnesses to acts of humiliation, coercion, emotional torment or mental agony occurring within the domestic sphere. According to the verdict, matrimonial disputes should be decided on the civil standard of “preponderance of probabilities”, taking into account conduct of the parties, surrounding circumstances, consistency of versions and overall probabilities emerging from the record, rather than the strict proof required in criminal prosecutions.
